[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ arrived in Medina, which was a bustling city. The people were intrigued, and when the Prophet ﷺ entered the mosque, he found people sitting and praying. The Prophet ﷺ said that the prayer of those sitting is half the prayer of those standing. In response to this, the people eagerly stood up to perform their prayers.  

أحمد:١٢٣٩٥حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ أَخْبَرَنِي أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ قَالَ

قَدِمَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ وَهِيَ مُحَمَّةٌ فَحُمَّ النَّاسُ فَدَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الْمَسْجِدَ وَالنَّاسُ قُعُودٌ يُصَلُّونَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ صَلَاةُ الْقَاعِدِ نِصْفُ صَلَاةِ الْقَائِمِ فَتَجَشَّمَ النَّاسُ الصَّلَاةَ قِيَامًا

" عَنْ أنِسٍ قَالَ: قَدِمَ النَّبِي ﷺ المَدِينَةَ وَهِىَ مُحِمَّةٌ، فَحُمَّ النَّاسُ، فَدَخَلَ النَّبِىُّ ﷺ والنَّاسُ يُصَلُّونَ قُعُودًا، فَقَالَ: صَلاَةُ القَاعِدِ نِصْفُ صَلاَةِ القَائِم، فَتَجَشَّمَ النَّاسُ الصَّلاَةَ قِيَامًا ".
